WINTER XTREMESaint Jude’s Retreat to Camp Timber-leE

Christians can indeed look ahead to being raised physically, our soul has been recovered from death and our lives should reflect this. Timber-lees youth programming is all about young people learning the importance of having their faith clearly show up in their daily life. We desire that students go home from winterXtreme confident and continually allowing The Holy Spirit to form them into better Christ followers.
